Italian Hours ends with the phrase, 'the luxury of loving Italy,' and everything in the book indicates that James enjoyed this luxury to the fullest. But he was by no means a blind lover. His opening essay on Venice, for instance, doesn't gloss over the sad conditions of life for the city's people: 'Their habitations are decayed; their taxes heavy; their pockets light; their opportunities few.'
